MOSCOW (Sputnik) – The withdrawal of Russia’s military contingent from Syria does not have any influence on Saudi Arabia’s decision to send ground troops to the country, Saudi Arabian Defense Ministry aide Ahmed Asiri told Sputnik on Tuesday.

“We’ve already said that troops, including from the international coalition, will be sent to Syria in the fight against terrorism. We’re not tied in any way with the presence of Russian troops in Syria. Saudi Arabia makes judgments on what’s there, not by what’s said,” Asiri said by telephone.
–
“We confirm that if Saudi troops head to Syria, then this would be within the international coalition, whose goal is the fight against terrorism,” Asiri added.
